2. Background
• Calcium +/- vitamin D supplementation
commonly used1
• Concern over links to cardiovascular
outcomes, but inconsistent evidence2-5
• Calcification involved in atherosclerosis, but
direct mechanistic link unproven5,6
• Limited data at population level

3. Aim
• Evaluate any link between calcium +/- vitamin
D supplementation and cardiovascular
outcomes in a UK population-based study
4. Methods
• 502,664 men and women aged 40-69 years
• Supplement data from questionnaire
• HES linkage (ICD-10): Hospital admission for
ischaemic heart disease and all CVD
• ONS linkage for death information
• Cox models; Adjustment for age, BMI, smoking,
alcohol, educational level, vigorous physical activity,
systolic blood pressure, diabetes/cholesterol
medication, HRT use (in women)
• n=486,522, yielding 1,962,642 total person-years

8. Conclusions
• Use of calcium supplementation was not associated
with increased risk of ischaemic or non-ischaemic
cardiovascular events leading to hospital admission
or death
• These findings support the cardiovascular safety of
calcium and vitamin D supplementation, at least
within the age range studied
• This research has been conducted using the UK Biobank Resource.

Editor's Notes
* This was the initial sample, but it would be better to state the sample included in the analysis: 486,522 (men and women with no missing values on sex, vitamin D and calcium supplementation and also those with cardiovascular events only before the baseline)
‡ 7.0% if men and women combined (2.6% among men and 10.6% among women)
Numbers updated
